The Manual of Ideas

We have partnered with The Manual of Ideas to build our events on three key pillars: great presenters, great ideas, and great value.

Authored by investment and finance professionals who have grown up on the teachings of Ben Graham, Warren Buffett and Joel Greenblatt, and have studied under luminaries such as Yale Chief Investment Officer David Swensen and Economics Nobel Laureate James Tobin, The Manual of Ideas delivers timely, differentiated investment ideas.

The Manual of Ideas research team has developed an idea funnel that utilizes quantitative and qualitative techniques to focus the team’s research on companies meeting multiple criteria for outperformance. The team analyzes areas ripe for investor misperception and neglect. It then applies an analytical framework grounded in deep understanding of business economics, competitive dynamics and security analysis.

Our partnership with The Manual of Ideas ensures that our investment conferences deliver unparalleled value in several ways:

Many of the world’s most highly regarded value-oriented fund managers have joined The Manual of Ideas to help them identify compelling investment opportunities. We routinely invite members of The Manual of Ideas to share their wisdom and investment strategies at our events.
Public company CEOs covet exposure to clients of The Manual of Ideas, who manage a combined $100+ billion in long term-oriented investment capital. This helps us attract senior executives to our events, giving our participants unique insight into undervalued public companies.
The Manual of Ideas has agreed to produce and make available to our participants free of charge a 100+ page research report focused on identifying investment ideas related to the focus of each conference.
